With "Legend" getting TV adverts at the moment, expect a re-emergence in 2011 to add to it's performance

 

It was #78 again on last week's chart.

 

Also, it got as high as #63 in 2010 and #38 in 2009. It seems to pop up again all the time (and why not, it's a classic album I suppose :P)

Madonna Immacualte collection has someone already has stated!!

 

Mariah Carey greatest hits first entered the charts 15.12.2001 at position 46!! Only staying in the charts for 4 weeks!!

 

It then peaked at number 7 in 2005 gaining popularity after the success of emancipation!!

 

It was last seen in the charts in 2008! Number 98!

It was actually re-released and re-promoted after the success of Emancipation, it didn't just 'regain' popularity as such by itself. Same for several other albums mentioned here. Although of course it's still valid, just saying. I think the same happened with The Proclaimers and their Greatest Hits after the success of 500 Miles as a Comic Relief song. Sting & The Police's The Very Best Of was also re-packaged and re-released in 2002 and went straight to #1. Chances are if an album re-enters at a high position rather than climbing its way back up it was re-released.

 

Radiohead's Pablo Honey is a good example of a studio album that continued to re-enter and be revived as the band grew and grew. It actually finally managed to repeak at #22 during the success of OK Computer, five years after its original release. Unfortunately it hasn't made another top 75 appearance since the late 90s.

If only I could prove that I bought Pablo Honey the day it was released.
